Cloud Storage Idea that builds off of Linus's Video

Hey guys and gals, I was wondering, since google gives you 15 free gigs of storage, would it be possible to configure a multi user storage area with each user storing up to that 15 gig file limit, then switching over to a new user, like linus's video? It would seem to be possible to get a crapload of free storage this way. I'm not as concerned for bandwidth as Linus is, but it would be a cheap and neat solution for low cost cloud backups for my servers and files. If anyone has any ideas about this, or has stated this in the past, get in touch and yell at me! Thanks for your time.

Its possible, but its gonna be a pain making that many accounts, and google will probably ban your pretty quickly making that many accounts.

 

Might aswell just use gsuite for the unlimited storage on one account.

Even if it could be made to work, I wouldn't trust Google with my data any further than I could throw my F150.

As long as anyone is oppressed, no one will be safe and free.

One has to be proactive, not reactive, to ensure the safety of one's data so backup your data! And RAID is NOT a backup!
